While our aim is to continue providing quality arts education to the city of Trenton, it’s always great to receive recognition for our efforts. That said, we learned this week that we have been nominated in the “Adult Art Class” category in the 10th annual JerseyArts.com People’s Choice Awards!
“Fans of the N.J. arts scene are passionate and loyal, and for good reason,” said Nick Paleologos, Executive Director of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. ‘This program has grown beyond our expectations, and that’s a direct result of the distinctive, thriving arts industry in this state offering high-quality experiences all year round.”
While Artworks handles everything from an awesome art gallery for the city of Trenton to the massive Art All Night – Trenton festival every June, Adult Education is one of the cornerstones of what goes on at Artworks. Our Arts Education courses run the gamut, from working in watercolors to full-on figure drawing, and range from beginners courses to classes for more advanced artists.
